FAVOUR: THE PRODUCT OF VISION


SCRIPTURE: For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. – Psalms 5:12.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Favour is kindness shown to someone beyond what is due or usual.

Favour is the act of kindness shown to someone beyond what is due or usual. Vision, on the other hand, is a mental picture of a preferred future.

It has been confirmed that favour travels with vision. Men and women of vision are men and women of favour.

Daniel was character in the Bible who was a man of vision, and was followed by favour.
In Daniel chapter 1:8, the Bible tells us how Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king’s food; it shows us a man of purpose and vision.
And in verse 9, Daniel got favour: ‘Now God had brought Daniel into favour….with the prince of the eunuchs.’ To be a person of vision, therefore, is to be a person of favour.
The favour of God on the life of Daniel made him not only to be loved by God but also loved by men. Daniel’s exploits spanned through the generations of four different kings because he was a man of vision and favour.

My counsel is, discover the purpose of God for your life and make it your vision for living and the favour of God will run after you. I prophesy on you today that your life will become relevant and irreplaceable like that of Daniel.

Remember this: Favour is the kindness shown to someone beyond what is due or usual.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Ask God for the impartation of unusual favour on your life.
2. Pray for the rekindling of your life’s vision. PRAYER: O LORD, I ask for the impartation of Your favour on my life. Rekindle my vision for living, O LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
